But when the only store in your vicinity buys/makes the bread for $0.50 and sells it for $10, when a reasonable markup would be $3, that is exploitation of the consumer. When the decision is between "eat for a ridiculous fee" and "don't eat", its a pretty simple decision, but that doesn't mean that it isn't an exploitative relationship. 

PS: The quote button is quite useful here, because it lets me know when you've replied to me...

There are three choices

(1) Buy it, and eat

(2) Don't buy it, and don't eat

(3) Commit robbery by threatening to fine, shoot, or imprison the current owner of the bread, or empower someone else to commit violence for you so you don't get your hands dirty.

I would reject option #3 as being immoral: being "exploited" because you don't like something doesn't justify violence.
